http://www.architectour.co.il/villa_fit.htm
....
The way the glass refelct the sky that actualy don't exist
make me wooooow .. then everyting ... the movement and the pre
render of the 3d model. I know that director export shockwave
content but after I was looking into a Macromedia Director package
I was totaly convinced that the movie was exported form another 3d
program.

Can anyone tell me what tool to use to make movies similiar
to this one ?

That can be done with 3D appz like Maya, 3D Max, Lightwave,
or any other
3D app that allow to export to SW3D. If you want realism on
the scene,
the easiest way is to use global ilumination and bake it on
the
textures. If it�s a rather large scene, then use
lightmaps instead.

Lightwave exports the reflection map inside the W3D but I
can�t recall
if the rest of the 3D apps do that aswell. You can also set
that feature
with Lingo 3D. Look for reflectionMap in Director�s
help.
